    Groves is a not overrated he's world class, Froch beat him with his grit and determination because
    he was being out boxed and took a good bit of punishment.
    It shows Froch has very good chin, but again it showed he can be out boxed but he will be there
    for 12 hard rounds.

    Froch is good fighter and all but people are saying Jones, Ali and Foreman when talking about the guy kinda silly don't you think. He is a good fighter who i think will make hof his resume pretty good but at the end of the day he was never top dog. I am not sure how this rematch will go but it will be good.

    If froch knocked ward out after this fight and added the WBC and ring belt would you guys think that would guarantee a hall of fame spot?

    Well i mean it is kinda hard because Froch was never really famous or ever the man in his own division. At his age he sure as shit won't do it now already lost Ward and he is tied with Kessler need a rubber match figure that out. The man fucked around and wasted a lot of his career before fighting a champ. Taylor was never good at smw and just got owned by Pavlik twice, German dude yet another mw with Miranda as his best win. Kessler and Pascal are his best wins really and Kessler beat him after coming off a loss and was easily handled way early in his prime by a Old Calzaghe. Pascal first time stepping up but went on to do good things until losing to Hopkins which no shame in. Tell me does being in one division where for must of it weren't even fighting for a trinket and never was top guy make you hof worthy.

    Yes of course.

    Of course. But it's highly unlikely.

    I disagree, I think he is a great fighter, just was to early on in his career for him to fight froch

    Not a great fighter but a good fighter.

    The rec speaks for itself he was a great middleweight, a nothing super middleweight. Plain and simple. I don't see how Froch can be an ATG. He lost to the 2 best fighters he came up against.

    Yea brock Talyor was really good at mw but even before Froch Pavlik kicked his ass. Talyor did nothing at smw and not a good win to have same with Abraham nothing at smw really. Froch was never the man at his weight class and has loses to best in his division not really atg maybe a hof. I am not saying Froch is shit but atg a big title to have and for a guy who was always number 2 or 3 and never number 1 at 168 i think that title is not for him. His resume is good but not good enough to point you can over look him never being the best.
